Where can I download TWS 921

Hi,
At the IB website the last version for download is the 922, but the latest NT Version works only with 921??
Where can I download the TWS 921?
And I dont understand, why the new NT7 Update not can support the newest IB TWS version. We are allways at least 2 versions behind the actual IB TWS

Hello,

You can get the supported version of IB from our website in the connection guide for IB. I have linked it below for convenience.

Also, you will find that we are normally a few versions behind the current release of IB, simply because we may not update our platform at the same time they do. It is also important to note that we can only begin testing new versions of TWS once those releases have been publicly made available, this also contributes to the time required to update our supported version of TWS.

Hi Brett,

thank you very much

[EddyEd]

I understand what you are saying about the delay in the versions. But I also worked in the software industry since 25 years, and usually we received from our partners a pre-version of the comming version. So we had time to adapt our interfaces to the leading system and when the leading system was launched into the market, we allways where up to date and our systems worked synchron. Isn't it posible to get such an arrangement with IB?

no connection for ib and ninja

sorry deleted the mesage as it was not explain well enough

Hi Support

No connecting between ninja & tws

Having the same problems as a previous member (altawast)

Have done all the updates as to your links

When connecting from the control panel it logs into tws but will not connect with ninja
itself.

In the bottom left hand corner it shows who its connecting to but will not go that step further to highlight and make the sound to confirm that has connected.

see attached link below

@Bossch
It seems that this is not a general problem. My system is working..

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post and sorry to hear about the issue.

What version of IB TWS do you have installed and also what version of NinjaTrader from the control center->help->about section do you have installed?

I look forward to assisting you further.

Helpful post in "timeout waiting for TWS" thread

Ninjatrader came up with a workaround for those with IB introducing brokers or IB resellers:

For me NT is able to connect to TWS again.

Hi Brett
I have version 7.0.1000.9(live)
TWS 921.5 as advised in the previous posts.

Hi Brett
One more thing when I first downloaded Ninja & TWS for the very first time sometime back i had the same trouble. To fix that problem i had to download an older version (917.8) of TWS which fixed it.
Now that it has been deleted I have the same problem back.
Some previuos posts have suggested 917.9 which I have tried and didn't work and same with 921.5
